interesting central character
*Guardian*
It's a rare treat to read a book by the far-from-prolific Danish
author Peter Høeg. . . His latest novel is an offbeat futuristic
thriller. . . the challenges Hoeg sets his readers are well worth
taking on
*Express*
A well-tuned and clever femi-thriller.
*Politiken*
A continually surprising conspiracy thriller.
*The Mail on Sunday*
Peter Høeg is back. And better. And with a novel that is both a
thriller, a social critique, and existentially provoking – and on
top of that, wonderful and funny.
